What kind of smoke detector should I buy?
This bedroom suffered from a terrible fire. Our team was able to remove the soot and the smell of smoke from the home.
A smoke detector is a crucial element in a home that can make the difference between life or death in an emergency situation. There are two main types of smoke detectors available for residential locations, photoelectric and ionization. Photoelectric detectors respond well to smoldering fires by using a light source that can determine if smoke is present. The reflected light triggers the alarm. Ionization detectors are able to detect if flames are present. Radioelectric material is located between two electrically charged plates that can detect a disruption of ions when smoke is present. Having both types of detectors in your home can offer you the highest protection.
